If you should know anything about my mother, it is that she is a junk collector. Today our church had a breakfast / yard sale. I am sitting at a table talking with my sister-in-law and my mom comes up from behind me, taps me on the shoulder, then hands me this crystal candy dish along with $3. She says, I want this, so take it and pay for it as you leave, then bring it tonight (dinner for Travis' birthday) and I will get it then. And I say, so why don't you just take it with you when you leave? And she says because I have already bought so much stuff your dad is going to be upset if I bring anything else home. Chuckle, chuckle! And then I say, so you want me to be the bad person??? Chuckle, chuckle! (by the way it's me chuckling-not a good idea). She then leans down, looks at me and very sternly says, "Just do what I said!" With a look of surprise, I say OK. Oh my, I had been spoken to as a 10 year old. So what am I to do? I took the candy dish, paid for it and put it in my car like a good little girl. Chuckle, Chuckle!
Tomorrow, my baby, Travis will be 24 years old. I can not believe it! Time really flies. We are having his birthday celebration tonight.
And what a beautiful day.................
Live, Laugh, Love
